The VP certainly seems to at his element with service men and women I am sure he will enjoy the event and his speech will be well appreciated by all of those who are fortunate to attend.

I have always admired Dick Cheney and think that he would make a great President. He is far and away better than the current crop of losers running for the office.

I'm guessing less than 1 in 10 Americans actually know what a fid is, or what it is used to accomplish.
